The necessity of using probiotics
Linex - representative of probiotics is recommended for use during antibiotic therapy. Antibiotics leads to the destruction of not only the pathogenic microorganisms, but also beneficial bacteria that inhabit the human gut. As a result, the immune system weakens, the defense mechanisms against microbes that penetrate through the digestive tract, also weakened.
Called probiotics preparations containing strains of beneficial bacteria that inhabit in the normal gastrointestinal tract of man. They should not be confused with prebiotics - is the only food for the beneficial microflora, which does not give the desired result, if a healthy flora destroyed by antibiotics.
